Operating system is the crucial ingerdient of the Computer . OS or Kernel fors the foundation over which a computing task is accomplished in a machine . OS resides in the Computer , to a outer world it is invisible , it stays in a realizable form to the students of Computer science , for all others its magic at work .

OS is in the form of KNowledge and is the King that commandes the resources of the computer .

Every Other ingredient is subservient to this KIng and It has a final say in all the activities of the Computer .

The other softwares can run on the computer but has to obey the dictum of OS and has to depend on the OS for its execution .

At any given Time OS has greater say than the tertiary software , and directs the resources to be allocated to the software as per its capacity and requirement from time to time.

Now philosophy [ ADvaita ]

Both OS and other softwares are of same type [ AS ATMA & PARAMATMA are of same type ]

All softwares are similar and mere set of instructions of similar types inherent to CPU and hence one .

Difference is in the worldly terms but from CPU point of view they all are similar and infact one only one .

Both reside in the same place ie at any given point of time instruction that is being executed in the processor [CPU] cannot be distinguished whether it is of OS or OF soaftware , its just a instruction for the processor and processor irrespectively executes it . [ Thus the original form of Software , whether OS or ANy Application is in the form of a set of instructions common to both , thus they can be declared as same ]

As execution is independent and common to both apps and OS , the delineation of a task is external manifestation and is mithya [ of local consequences only ] , inreality from CPU point of view , it makes no difference whether OS is operating or Application is running .

Certain specialized application when given access to higher resources of the Computer , can act akin to OS and infact merge as a enhancement to OS [ when written in assemby modules ]

Thus a application is subservient OS as long as it feels as an application , if it realizes that it is equal to OS in form and perspective , it can gain access to higher resouces of Architecture and merge with OS .

So as ATMA [application] realizes that it is infact Paramatma [OS] [ AHAM BRAMHASMI] it can merge into the OS [ BRAMHA] .

Dvaita philosophy

Both OS and Appliation Software are unique and different [ ATMA and PARAMATMA are different and unique ]

Though they are made up of similar knowledge instructions , Apllication software is subset of OS [ Bimba pratibimba]

Difference is not only in the worldly terms but also there is Difference as OS is superior and has complete control of application layers

All other softwares are also unique and different .

The superiority of OS is visible and to the experience of us all as OS if busy in other activity , application does not show result [ karma is not accomplished as per desire]

Though OS and apps instruction set and only one instruction at a given point resides CPU , [ it becomes difficult to identify whether CPU is executing OS or application ] such a overlap exists but OS retains its superiority through Clock and control circuitry .

At no point can Application override a perfect OS .

EVen if Application realizes the presence of OS and go according to its allocation of resorces , all it can expect is better resources and smooth execution and priority from OS . But never can it equal OS .

Even after such prioritisation [ due to frequent execution and presence in good books ; prefetch] it still remains subservient to OS .

So Atma is never equal to Paramatma and always remains subservient to HIM .

If aplication tries to gain access to higher resources , for which it is not eligible , it is either termed as VIRUS[ tamoyogya] or the computer crashes , with OS opting to preempt the software .

Pranaam Guruji,
Work of a pure genius!!!!Had to read and reread to really get the technical aspects..
also,we generally cannot install the same applcn s/w in the same os if already installed..hence,unique..
